I tried this, and it didn't work :(

There's something wicked in my 2.4.18-686 PCMCIA stuff, though, because
here's the errors I get when I do: /etc/init.d/pcmcia restart

Shutting down PCMCIA services:.
Starting PCMCIA
services:/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/kernel/drivers/pcmcia/i82365.o:
init_module: No such device
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/kernel/drivers/pcmcia/i82365.o: insmod

 cardmgr.

The wickedness comes from the fact that it should be using the 3c589
driver, not the i82365 one - and on inspection of the
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/kernel/drivers/pcmcia directory, there isn't
one.

I am heading towards thoroughly confused at a rate of knots :\

Take care,

Peter.
